Trivia Question of the Week<\/h4>\n

Q. What’s every player’s bankroll at the start of a Monopoly game? (Answer at the end of this newsletter.)<\/p>\n

Employee Morale Activity:<\/h3>\n

Give Employees an Opportunity to Brag<\/h3>\n

At the beginning of your next staff meeting. Give each employee a ‘Brag Sheet’ of paper on which to write something they accomplished at work or in their personal life since the last meeting. Give employees a few minutes to write their ‘Brags’ and then hand them in.<\/p>\n

Then, at an appropriate time during the meeting, read the brag sheets with enthusiasm and applause after each one.<\/p>\n

Listening to other people’s accomplishments is so motivating because people think, “If she can do that, I can, too.”<\/p>\n

If you do this regularly at your weekly or monthly meetings, employees will strive to do something they can brag about. To encourage participation, let everyone who turns in a brag sheet participate in a drawing for a small prize.<\/p>\n
